WATER DAMAGE RESTORATION SERVICES

Water damage cleanup & restoration service is defined as the process of restoring water-damaged property to its pre-loss condition. The damage can come from a variety of sources including but not limited to: flooding due to storms, broken pipes, sewage backups, malfunctioning appliances, and even human error such as overflowing sinks or toilets. As horrible as water damage can be statistically speaking at some point or another in their life, everyone experiences it and needs water restoration services. Unless you can avoid flooding, hurricanes and tornadoes and make sure all of your pipe, faucets and appliances are always in good working order, you’ll probably experience water damage during your lifetime. Like death and taxes, water damage is a certainty.

At Restoration Local our water remediation contractors provide quality water restoration services to home and business owners alike. No matter the cause or how large the project we have got you covered from home and residential water damage restoration to large scale commercial water mitigation.

More on Water Remediation Cleanup Services

While in many instances you can take on water damage clean up yourself, sometimes you’ll want a water cleanup company to do the work for you. In cases of major damage that requires a lot of rebuilding or water cleanup, you may want to contact a water restoration company. Or – in cases where the damage is due to sewage – also known as black water (which is highly toxic and can cause black mold) – you may want to contact a water restoration company that specializes in sewage cleanup. If you want to make sure all traces of water are completely eradicated from your home, calling a water restoration company is a good place to start. If water damage occurs near electrical outlets or appliances, calling a water restoration company is advised to avoid potential electrocution.

This is where we come in. Our water restoration services include the full package. Before we start, though, let’s talk about why it’s so important to contact a water damage company as soon as possible after a water event. Moisture + oxygen + mold spores (which are literally everywhere and too small to be seen or avoided) = mold growth. Mold can start growing just 48 hours after contact with water. Mold can cause crippling health problems and allergies – some of which are deadly. Mold also damages the structure of your home over time. Preventing mold growth from the beginning can save you from health issues and further expenses with home reconstruction.

Our water damage restoration company begins with the water extraction process. This is the process where excess water is removed from the affected area. We use high-powered pumps and wet/dry vacs to extract all excess water from your property. This process includes removing furniture, carpeting and other items away from the area so they can be dried and cleaned – all of which we do for you. If there are items that need to be thrown out due to excessive damage, we will haul them away for you. Once water extraction has been performed, the next step can begin.

The next step in our water remediation service is structural drying. This may sound like setting up a few fans and stepping away, but it’s a little more involved than that. Our water restoration company uses heavy-duty fans that are strategically placed throughout the area for optimal drying. Our water restoration experts also know which areas need to be dried. Water tends to get into every nook and cranny. Making sure the area is completely dry is our business. Once every inch is completely dry, we can proceed to the next step.

Cleaning and mold prevention is the next step in our water damage restoration process. We use special cleaners and mold deterrents. Every area previously submerged in water is completely cleaned and sanitized. Not only does this keep mold from growing, it also removes all odors. One of the biggest complaints we get from customers who have previously used substandard companies is the smell that is left behind. Our cleaning supplies leave only a fresh, clean scent behind. Our customers are always extremely satisfied with the light scent of our cleaning materials. They’re not overpowering nor do they just cover up the smell of dirty water.

Finally, our water restoration service company completes the job with the restoration process. This may mean rebuilding floors or walls or roof repair or painting or re-tiling. This list is not all-inclusive. It can mean a variety of these things or much more. Each home’s restoration process is different. The restoration process is where the magic happens and your home is restored to its pre-loss state. Many restoration companies promise pre-loss condition, but very few follow through with this like we do. It is our number one priority to make sure your home has the look and feel that it did prior to the water damage loss event.

Remember that time is of the essence with water cleanup and repair. The sooner the restoration process can begin, the less risk to your health and the structure of your home. If that’s not incentive to contact a restoration company right away, consider the savings to your wallet. Water damage repairs become more costly as time goes on because damages become worse and mold can set in causing health issues that also cost money to repair. Standing waters in your home will also draw insects. Keep these things in mind when debating about whether or not to take care of the loss right away. It can save you time, money, and even your life!

Our restoration service contractors are ready to help you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. We are here to help you through this difficult time night and day because we know how important it is to take care of the problem immediately and because we know how important your home is to you. If you’re looking for a professional water restoration team that cares about you and your family and getting the job done right the first time, look no further.

have to say aboutour restoration services

My townhouse water meter was broken and 38 gallon water ran into my basement and my neighbor's basement. Mold grew in next couple of days after removed damaged carpet from my basement and neighbor's basement. The adjuster, went thru inspection with me for both basements and showed me all mold spots and told me how the mold remediation would be conducted. The work started the same day after I hired the company. Mold remediation job took two days and they took away all equipment right after the job done.

Brad A

The technician re-constructed our water damaged house (an entire first floor) from buckled hardwood, spongey carpets and wet drywall back to where it was pre-damage. They are a company that dots their i's and crosses their t's, and stays on top of all the subspecialties required for these projects to be successful. Would highly recommend them!

Lissa C

I had a water loss to my home back in October 2015. My Master bathroom, master bedroom, and walk-in closet were affected. It was a total disaster! I was so worried about which company to go with to help get my house and family back to normal! This was our first experience with any type of significant damage to our home. I could not believe how quick, they all were to respond to our families misfortune. They graciously worked around our busy schedule, and were very knowledgable of the work they performed. I have never been so satisfied with a business!!! They did a FANTASTIC JOB restoring my house back to normal! It is better now than it was before the water loss. I LOVE MY NEW FLOORS!!!!!!! Truly God Sent!!!

Jessica S

Our house got flooded and as soon as my husband gave them a call, they were quick to have people over and start drying up our house before we got any damages.Their employees had great people skills and ensured us everything will be taken care of and we didnt have to worry about a thing. The guy that installed our ceramic floors after they did a great job drying up our house and cleaning everything up, did a fantastic job and our floors are gorgeous! I loved the fantastic customer service they have provided from the beginning to the end, and then some! we are definitely going to gro through them again with anything we need done with our house.

Joanne D

We have had many emergency floods at rentals properties we manage and they were just a phone call away and responded in more than a timely matter. Because the water extraction and flooring are right there together, we already had the flooring picked out and it was also installed immediately after the water was extracted.

Drew B

I am a property manager here in Fayetteville and we have used this company in most of our OMG cases where the pipes burst and we have water coming out of the walls of a home. They get out to the home very quickly once notified and are very professional! They also work well with the insurance companies and are great at taking care of all aspects of the repairs needed.

Haley K

My experience with all the employees, from first contact to the very last one, was friendly, meticulous, professional, thorough and respectful of a family's needs and feelings in an unexpected and pricey basement water problem. They knew that we were overwhelmed at the scope of demolition work needed to prep for further foundation work and they patiently talked us through all the work they would do for us in the project in the basement.

Bibianne Y

I had a major flood when I was on vacation. The damage to the house and personal property was extensive. The technician took care of all repairs, dealings with the insurance company and moving personal property to and from storage. Any problems were discussed and resolved.

Doug M

Broadco took over all of the repair work and all of the stress of dealing with the insurance company processing a complicated loss claim. Their main goal is getting your property back to the pre-loss condition not what the insurance company feels the repairs are worth.

Ryan M

Responsive, professional, friendly...understand unexpected home damage is more than studs and drywall and is sensitive to the emotions of losing family items.

Chis A

In April 2015 we had a leak in a bulkhead from the roof into our 16th floor condominium unit. The roof was not maintained properly and deteriorated to the point where the upper membrane cracked leaving massive areas of the insulation soaked with water. Despite it being their responsibility, the condominium association refused to act quickly to repair and stop the water leaks. From April through August the water dripped. On several occasions, the association tried to open the bulkhead without taking proper steps to provide for mold controls and containment . We calledthis technician who immediately stepped in, notified the association if proper procedures of the requirements for mold containment protocol, and despite the association refusing to pay, he both saved us from having our entire home contaminated and did an excellent job of containing, removing and treating the mold. I highly recommend him

Eddie T

They went over the areas multiple times to ensure all of the areas were clean of all residual molds. VERY difficult job- well done! Very friendly group, very professional. Absolutely recommend.

Nathan S

I HIGHLY recommend this company for any vent, water, mold, etc. issues. They were on time, stayed within quote budget, and even went the extra mile to solve problems that were not predicted. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Utilize this wonderful company for any of your household issues 🙂

Rebecca C

I HIGHLY recommend this company for any vent, water, mold, etc. issues. They were on time, stayed within quote budget, and even went the extra mile to solve problems that were not predicted. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Utilize this wonderful company for any of your household issues 🙂

Rebecca C

We had molded, damaged walls and ceiling and they fixed it timely and professionally. Hard working group who were reliable, cleanly, and trustworthy. They were very flexible and worked around our schedule too. Highly recommended.

Elizabeth P

I called on a Saturday morning with a flood. They came out, ripped up my carpet and dried my whole basement. They also worked directly with the insurance which made it very easy for me. The thing I liked the most was that they did everything from start to finish, so we only had to deal with them for carpet / walls / paint etc. I recommend highly

Kyle P

Solved our problem immediately! When floods happen we all panic. I called as soon as I saw the wet carpet in my finished basement. Water was leaking from my a/c and I had a large area of carpet and padding that needed to be dried and changed before it got any worse. They removed the wet padding, then dried the carpet and replaced the padding. They even had to cut away the carpet from a doorway area and they re-laid the carpet perfectly as if nothing had ever happened. Friendly, efficient workers and great service.

Dale B

He made sure everything was ordered and installed in a timely manner. He also made sure the work was being done correctly by his employees by stopping by multiple times throughout. Great service and great people

Nirav S

My fiance and I had overnight flooding from Andrea on June 7th to June 8th. Called in the middle of the night and they responded immediately. The job was done efficiently, effectively, and with the utmost courtesy. We hope to not have any more flooding, but if we do, Ace will be the first company we call!

Rober P

The technician and his crew were exactly what we needed after realizing the second floor windows were leaking into the first floor after a major storm. He is a pro and knew exactly how to solve the moisture problem before mold could take hold. He worked with our insurance and made the entire process as smooth as possible. He also took the time to patiently answer all of our questions and always made us feel like a priority.

David B

This company is awesome! Great service from start to finish- very professional manager & crew. Respond time was exceptional. If you find yourself in need of restoration I highly recommend contacting Richard, Daniel & Malik for assistance.

Lesa H

The Technician took prompt action when I needed help. I am really appreciate his efficiency and putting a team together within less than an hour. He was very professional, polite, always on time.

Lei M

I usually don't write reviews, but I had to write a review after the wonderful service I had. The gentleman was very sweet and explained everything he was going to do. That made me feel very comfortable because he was extremely attentive. The service they provide is phenomenal too!

Fernanda F

The Technician was very professional, on time, polite, and they went above and beyond to make sure I was a satisfied customer. They provided me with a free estimate, and scheduled services for the very next day. Work was done in a very timely manner, very professionally, and they left everything very clean and organized. My home no longer smells like mold.

Erica R

The technician explained all details of the job to me thoroughly. I annoyingly had a million questions and he answered them without the notion that my OCD was taking over the conversation. He and the team were nothing but great! Highly recommended and I'll be referring them to anyone I know that needs services of this kind.

Kim S

Unfortunately a pipe was broken in one of the bathrooms and caused a disaster. The guys were very friendly, quick and neat to work, achieving a very good result. Thank you very much! I definitely recommend this company

Sonia L

Fantastic experience... I was having sinus headaches and infections for the longest time. I was also starting to get vertigo and was convinced that it had to be related to maybe presence of mold in my house, maybe in the attic or the basement. The technician checked the entire house and told me there was no mold but (60percent) very high humidity levels . He installed an industrial size dehumidifier for 3 days and explained that it is essential to keep temperatures low during the summer in order to avoid the high humidity and eventual formation of mold. I then looked on the internet and found resent research linking high home humidity to respiratory illnesses such as sinus infections and vertigo.

Luisa D

The technician was very prompt, and I was very pleased with their workers. They were all very knowledgeable and great people to work with in every way. I am satisfied with their work and i would recommend them to anyone.

Marco G

We had water damage in our basement and we contacted this company for a mold remediation job. They were great, professional, told me what they were doing and did it, cleaned up before they left and did a great job. They even came back to make sure the mold and humidity were gone. I am very satisfied with the job and I would definitely recommend them.

Maria A

Our roof was leaking, we called a technician and they sent someone before the rain stopped. The roof was patched and remained this way until we had the entire roof replaced.

William A

The Technician came out in the middle of the night and extracted our basement. They handled all the communication with our insurance company and were very professional.

Jonathan F

We had a lot of damage during the 2015 ice dams. The technician really knows his stuff - and can really work with you and the insurance companies (which is always so difficult). He has a great bunch of guys and whenever any of them were at the house working, they did excellent work. It's been a trying year to get all the repairs done and to get reimbursed by insurance. Thank goodness we had the whole team to work with and help us through the whole process.

Nanci M

A piped burst at my mother's house and when the fire trucks got there her house had plenty of water that had soaked her carpets and ran down through the ceiling to the basement. Her home was a wreck. I called and without 2 hours they were on the scene. They assessed the situation and began soaking up the water. They brought in fans, heaters, and everything to dry up the carpet, ceiling and floors. They left equipment to complete the drying process so there would not be any mold. They did an awesome job and I hope I never need them again, but for sure they are the ones I would call. Will recommend to all my family and friends.

Adwin A

I felt they really had my best interest at heart both with the water damage and the insurance claim. They went out of their way to make sure I understood the process and got everything from my insurance carrier. Hopefully I won't have water damage again, but I would call these guys back right away, and would recommend them to everyone

Tony D

Everything from start to finish was taken care of and done as they said. Once the repairs were started, they were always here when promised and did a wonderful job! I absolutely recommend them to anyone finding themselves in a situation where their services are needed. This was a first for me and they made it much easier with all their help. Thanks so much for everything.

cindy B

Great guys, great work. They even helped to make sure my insurance paid for everything they should have. This was my first water damage claim and even though the house was in chaos for a few days, everything got dried out and replaced... Even got new carpet for the downstairs. Very happy with the work they did.

Hotrod W

These guys are the pros. Unfortunately I have had the need for this service twice in the last couple of years. They explained in English what they were doing and why and things went smoothly with their drying and with the insurance claim. I am a very happy customer.

Figurative P

I had a great experience with this company. They came and explained what they would do. What I would need to do and worked with my insurance company give them a try for your flood from water pipes or fire etc.

Carolyn M

These guys know what they are doing, and do it well. When it comes to assessing damage and working with the adjuster, years of experience really pays off.

Ed C

In a stressful situation, its good to know that a family owned business is around to help. The owner is reliable and amazingly patient, which is not always the case

John H

They went up and above what they needed to do because they wanted to give extra to make sure I was happy. They are extremely easy to work with and all of their help they brought in were incredible. All great workers and very personable. I would highly recommend them!

Rick P

Fast, professional, knowledgeable. The technician is one of the most thorough restoration experts on the island, and worked with me to restore the damage in my home exactly to my liking.

Anthony C

The technician is very knowledgable and the job was done on time and the work looks great! All mold was removed and he even took the time to educate me a bit on what type of mold and what was required to eliminate the problem.

Sam F

Fast, reliable, friendly, and hardworking! The flooding started at 7pm on a Saturday and they were there within the hour. On top of all the fans and dehumidifiers they brought a back up sump pump to help keep our floors dry. They checked in daily and rolled out the "paper" carpet when they were working on the floors to keep things clean. I have a child and dog and they were extremely careful with their restoration process (ex. blocking off the area with plastic walls). They took charge in dealing with the insurance company via phone and in person when they came to estimate the damage. They also called and prepped the flooring company before we arrived to shop. Overall a great experience that I hope we don't have to deal with again 😉

Anna J

I have had many do work for me over the past 16 military years and three houses that I have owned, but this by far is the BEST COMPANY I have ever had do work for me. My AC unit flooded the garage, laundry room and my daughter's bedroom. These guys were the most professional people I have ever seen. The work was of the highest quality and was done very quickly and professionally. They got rid of the water. They did drywall removal and installation. They also remove carpet and laid tile There was no headaches at all and the pricing was the best in the market.

Rob L

My house flooded recently. My son's bedroom, the kitchen, and the bathroom were flooded and water-damaged. The technician came and they removed all the water, and they repaired all the damage. They did it quickly and professionally.

Anthea B

One of our pipes broke in our bathroom and water flooded most of my bedroom, which is all carpet so trying to try it out was impossible. I was kind of freaking out when it was happening but the technician totally saved the day! Highly recommend these guys

Michael B

The technician came to my house did a fantastic job restoring my entire house due to a flood. Very polite help me out from the beginning to the end of the Job I will definitely recommend

Francisco K

They're very personable and know what they're talking about. They'll even work with your insurance and give up front pricing over the phone.

These guys have helped me out several times when my bedroom add-on flooded. They were fast, considerate and took the time to explain everything and how to prevent a serious mold problem after my Sheetrock was soaked. Highly recommended.
